INCALCANDO / Parat+

Parat+ Documentation

Parat+ is an app for iOS that allows musicians and artists to control several devices in realtime through multi-touch gestures with just one interface. A virtual ‘fader box’, it allows you to record, remap and set controls instantly and intuitively. Swipe and multitouch gestures record, loop and remap the interval of each fader and responsivity curve. Rescale, enlarge, pause and interrupt to modify your controls in realtime. Control sound levels, effects parameters, synthesis, lights and more via OSC and MIDI simultaneously.

Parat+ is a terrific app. It was very easy to set up and configure with my existing max/MSP love-processing system, and I am regularly using in performance. As I get to know it more, it is taking on a larger and larger role, too. I think it will eventually be my sole controller … And I’m only scratching the surface of what it can do. Get this app and dig in. The possibilities are huge as a standalone, or controller for Max, Ableton Live or many other software platforms!

“With Parat+ I was very quickly able to vastly extend the mod matrix of (a beloved iOS Synth w/ a limited mod matrix), by adding another 30 customizable/recordable modulations to this iOS Synth via MIDI CCs.”

” Parat+ is way deeper than it looks at first sight.”

“Finally, and this was a crucial one for us, the option to switch between ints and floats has allowed us to completely drive Resolume! Which again combined with the ability to change addresses on the fly has greatly increased our flexibility.”

” … compared to TouchOSC, the workflow is more efficient because I can change the addresses on the fly without having to recompile or reupload the layouts. This is especially critical when using proprietary programs you can’t recompile and are therefore stuck with the addresses that are provided.”

“It’s really cool how you can set up really sophisticated processing so easily!”
